Using these Data
The following notes summarize features of data included in this report.
 01. Demographic Trends
The Demographic Trends section presents model-based demographic estimates developed by the Census Bureau.
While these data are intended to be consistent with the ACS data described below, they will typically
differ some; even when comparing the ACS 2015 1-year estimate to the model-based 2015 estimate.
.. See related all districts interactive table
.. Updates December 2017.

 02. ACS Demographic-Economic Estimates
Reference to "with ACS 1-year data" means that 02 sections of the report use ACS 1-year estimates (available district 65,000 population and over).
Where there is no ACS reference, ACS 5-year data are used (available for all districts). In general, the 1-year estimates should be used when available (more recent, more accurate) but there are
reasons to prefer the 5-year estimates even when 1-year estimates are available. See more about using 1-year and 5-year estimates.

Glossary -- goto topUrban/Rural & Locale Code
The percent urban value in the Oveview is computed as the ratio of the population in urban
census blocks to the
total population in the district based on
Census 2010 SF1.
No adjustment is made for districts which may have changed boundaries since 2010.
If the Census 2010 district geocode does not match to a ACS 2015 geocode, the percent urban is shown as NA.
